Family Ministries

We offer ministries for your kids and students (newborn – college age) where they can learn and grow with others their age.

What can I expect?

Coming to a new church can be intimidating. What should I wear? Where do I park? Where do my kids go? We understand the many thoughts and concerns you may have, and we want you to feel as comfortable as possible!

Beliefs & History

We would love to tell you a little bit about what we believe, and where we have been as a church.
